Psalms of Grace ‎#10a

10a. O LORD, Why Hide Thou Thy Face

1 O LORD, why hide Thou Thy face,
While dangers round me close?
Return in all Thy power and grace,
And save me from my foes.

2 The haters of Thy Word and Name,
My firmness fiercely prove;
And through Thy servant's fall would aim,
A wound at Him I love.

3 Arise, O LORD, their rage control,
Blow down the swelling wave;
Arise to help the poor in soul,
And snatch him from the grave.

4 Thy grace prepares the heart to pray,
Ad hears its humble plea:
Arise to be the trembler's stay,
Arise to rescue me!
